[mythtv-users] Re: [mythtv] New dual C3 CPU motherboard coming!

[Micah Morton]

I've noticed that there is an experimental driver that calls the mmap
interface on the card (which should allow for record/playback), but I've
yet to get it working (something about invalid arguments to ioctl's
VIDIOCSYNC0/VIDIOCSYNC1).  Ahh, well.

I'm going to attempt to drop in an old BT848 based capture card
(MiroMedia PCTV) and see if I can get capture to work with that.

Kinda defeats the purpose of having an AIW, but if at some point they
get support for ATI cards on the right track, at least I'll be able to
do picture-in-picture :).

I wish I would have perused the lists prior to buying all my hardware
(same for all my other linux-experiments). I got an AIW 7500 and after
installing all of gatos.sourceforge.net, I've got xawtv working great,
but no mythtv.
*THEN* I read the lists. <Sigh>, live and learn.

So let's turn this thread into a useful discussion for those of us with
all-in-wonder radeon cards...since it has been mentioned that the AIW
will work as a tuner OR a display device, what should we shop for? A
bttv tuner, or a new tv-out video card? Where does the radeon's strength
lie? Any negative feedback about the ATI remote may put my 7500 straight
on ebay.

Thanks for sharing!
